One of the key obstacles to implementing change at the PG County Animal Service Facility PGCASF is the lack of resources.  Currently, the budget doesn’t allow for large-scale ad campaigns or hiring a larger workforce.  However, if the stakeholders in the local community got together to reach out to the local government officials, perhaps they could get state and/or national funds allocated to this project.  As mentioned in the “Barriers to Change” article, to affect change, one has to think of organizations as “people”.  In other words, by using political pressure on local officials by showing that the stakeholders in the community (local businesses, and community residents) share their concerns about controlling the feral cat problem, the stakeholders can make real changes in “the status quo”. Feedback and learning in a strategy-focused organization not only comes from comparing actional performance to the target but should also include brainstorming on strategic issues that would enable the organization to meet and exceed targeted goals (Nnamdi, 2015).

Another barrier to change for PGCASF is for management to inspire its employees to “do more with less”.  Having all the employees on board with supporting and taking care of the Trap -Neuter -Release (TNR) program would also be the job of management at the PG County Animal Service Facility.  The management should ask their employees about how best to execute this program by having meetings on the subject (with management and employees in attendance).  Certificates of achievement could be issued to those employees who excel in this program–or even a monetary incentive or time-off awards, for example.  This would promote positive competition in the workplace and could even stimulate new ideas on how to implement this program.  Getting the staff to be more involved in the TNR program could really make organizational change happen.

The project charter is already done, just uploaded it so you know how it started off as. The presentation slides from slide 37 to 40 are the only relevant ones ignore the rest.

Criminal Justice Policy Analysis

February 29, 2020 5 Comments APA, Law

For this assignment, you are required to interview and write a profile of an individual who has been impacted by a collateral consequence of conviction. This can be a person who has been disenfranchised from the vote, blocked from gainful employment, subjected to a civil asset forfeiture proceeding, wrongfully convicted, or affected by some other documented collateral consequence.

This assignment will have two deliverables: (i) an interview schedule and (ii) the profile story. The interview schedule consists of a list of questions that serves as a guide to what topics and issues you will ask your respondent. Tips for developing an interview schedule are available here. You will have to decide whether you will record the interview or take notes; the preceding guide offers some pros and cons on that decision. The profile will detail background on the individual and offer a compelling story about the individual’s personal experiences and struggles with collateral consequences. Useful guides for developing your profile are available here and here. You may also seek out other resources on your own.

Your profile is limited to 2,500 words, not including title page (include word count at end of profile). You have a lot of leeway as to how this document is organized and structured, but use the guidelines linked here to begin that framing process. Stylistically, your paper should be double-spaced, use Times New Roman 12-point font, have one-inch margins all around, and include page numbers. You should append your interview schedule to the end of your profile (this does not apply toward word count).

The profile must be of a living person, who you can interview in-person, over the phone, through web interface, etc. You will have to decide how long the interview should be, keeping in mind not to overburden the respondent. If you are having difficulty identifying an impacted individual, please contact me early so we can discuss.

Tips for developing an interview schedule are available here. Useful guides for developing your profile are available here and here.

Proposing Strategies for Tesla

February 29, 2020 2 Comments Business and Management, Chicago / Turabian

Hi,
You will be helping me in proposing 2 core competency strategies for Tesla Inc. for their next steps. 1 strategy should be New Business Creation, and the other should be Market Segmentation.

This strategy is the end product of a 50 paged internal and external analysis of Tesla Inc. That being said, it is the most important part of this assignment.

I will attach you a summary of my internal and external analysis to help you with your strategies.

I will attach you 12 steps grading rubric that will be used in grading the strategy. Your strategy should follow these steps.

I will attach you a finished example of the report, and the strategies are located starting in Page 10. Remember, only New Business Creation and Market Segmentation, since I will do the other parts myself.

I will attach a book on business strategy only if you ask for it since the size is pretty big.

That being said, you have to be proficient in formulating an out-of-the box strategy for Tesla that fits the criteria that is desired.

Times New Roman, 12 pt font. Each Strategy should be 1 page single spaced, since there’s no option for it, I asked for 2 page double spaced for each strategy.  BE CLEAR WITH YOUR STRATEGY.
